Depend’s are not for me.

“It’s an honor to be here tonight. I speak to you not as a representative of young Hollywood, but as a representative of the many millions of young Americans, particularly young women, who depend on public and nonprofit programs to help them survive.” – Scarlett Johansson.

Listen, my dear ScarJo, you have NO idea what us young women are facing out here. So shut up! You just continue you’re not-so-hard job of getting paid to entertain us and do us all a favor out here and keep you’re weirdly large mouth shut. If there is anyone I DO NOT need lecturing me about why we need to re-elect the worst President in history, it is a bunch of out-of-touch celebrities like Scarlett Johansson, Eva Longoria, Kerri Walsh, and whoever the hell else thinks they know what they’re talking about in Hollywood. Especially about the plight of women!!! (I think the same of Clint Eastwood, Hollywood just needs to stay out of politics because how can they honestly have any clue what is happening out here in the real world… I mean Clint’s daughter set a 10,000 dollar purse on fire for Merlin’s sake.) HAHA You are kidding yourself if you think Miss Johansson goes to a PUBLIC hospital when she needs medical care! Uh, no. What these people don’t care to understand is that if this President got out of our way out here in the real world, we’d be much better off. If we had a President who was going to continue the Bush-era tax cuts for everyone, deregulate the private sector, and work help the free market grow we would be much better off! We would not have to depend on the President, or anyone on the hill for that matter! We’d be able to feel better about our investments and our businesses. We’d have to give less of our hard-earned paychecks to the feds. If we actually allowed for the private sector to thrive, costs all around would go down, the price of living would be much more manageable, and not to mention the jobs that would be created out of a free flowing market! Wow! Rocket science? Nope! WE DO NOT NEED TO RELY ON THE GOVERNMENT, and to have celebrities telling us we I do, COME ON! Not only was Obama’s speech completely underwhelming, I just grew frustrated by the parade of completely out-of-touch people telling me what to do!

I hate the word depend so much! I work on a daily basis to make myself completely independent! I work on a daily basis to not have to ask for a hand-out, and to not owe anyone anything. By allowing the government into your life, you allow them to have control over it. I cannot think of anyone that actually wants this. Who wants to be controlled? Who wants to be dependant on other people, and rely on others to take of you? Unless you are the laziest person on the Earth, no one!!! The theme of the DNC was dependence. It was a message of you need us, not you can do this on your own and we are going to get out of your way. That is the difference between the two conventions. The Republican’s talked about independence rooted in a strong family, faith and a small government. The Democrat’s talked about how we need them in office to take cares of us, we need to rely on them, and we need to give them another chance.

What it comes down to, my fellow citizen’s, is do you want people in office who are going to get out of your way and allow you to thrive and grow on your own? Or do you want people in office who are going to make it so you rely on them, and become dependent on them? To me the choice is quite obvious, being a strong, smart, and independent women, but I implore you to really think about that difference and make a smart and solid decision.
